Okay, so now let's go one step further and add our collie to the network.
Are you ready for this?
First of all, let me change the labels from the IP block to the IP address and this one as well.
And create the labels for VLANs.
From the S3 Main Menu Select Preferences.
In the tree at the left hand side, you see that there is a VMware VMs.
It's a menu item under the VMware menu.
You got it?
Okay, Select it.
Now here I have a few VM templates that I've added before.
You are supposed to have nothing here at the moment unless you added something before as well.
So in any event, click new and a new VMware VM template window appears and the VMware virtual machines
are already listed in the combo box.
So select Kali Linux 2018.
Do not select use as a linked base VM because it's experimental at the moment and it could have some
bugs that could just throw you off.
So right here, let's just click finish.
All right, Now we have a template in G three.
You can edit it here or delete it just like the router that we added before.
Okay, so its name is too long.
So let's click edit, change the name and click okay and okay again.
Now we're ready to add it to our network.
So from the devices toolbar, if you expand the end devices, that's where you see Kelly.
So drag and drop it into the workspace.
And a label showing its IP address.
I'll make it IP 10.3 and.
It'll be in Vlan ten.
So click the last item in the Devices toolbar to connect Colley to the switch.
Click the switch, select the interface, and I'll select fast Ethernet 1/3.
And click Collie.
Select the only option Ethernet zero.
Uh oh.
We got a problem.
But no worries.
We're troubleshooters here, right?
It's not an unexpected situation.
An error message appears at the top right corner.
It says we have to stop the VM and allow DNS three to change the attachment type.
You can see the same message in the S3 console at the bottom.
Go to Cali here and shut it down.
And from the virtual machine menu item select shut down.
It's going to take about two minutes.
But while Kylie is shutting down, let's go to three and allow it to change the VMs attachment type.
So from three, the main menu select preferences, select VMware VMs at the left hand side tree and
click Collie, and then click edit.
Now you can select the network tab and here there's a check box to allow Gns3 to override VMware adapter.
So check it and click okay and then okay again.
And we're still waiting for Kylie to be shut down.
Okay, so let's try to connect Cali to the switch again.
But we have another error message.
It says Nat is already configured on the network adapter.
So let's allow anyone to use any adapter.
Okay.
So I think I know the problem.
Do you?
We'll find out.
So we have to remove Carly from the workspace because this one has been added before.
We allow Gns3 to configure VMware's network interface.
So now I'll add Carly again by drag and drop.
Now connected the switch.
Okay.
But before starting Cali, let me clear the S3 console.
Now let's start Cali again.
What?
Another error message?
Okay, no worries.
I already knew all of these messages beforehand.
I just want to show you what happens when the S3 needs to add Cali to it.
So this message means that we need to have a custom network interface created in VMware and available
to be used by Gns3.
So now from VMware Fusion, I'll start Virtual Machine library from the main menu Select Preferences.
If you're using VMware Workstation or player, just go to the preferences there.
Now Click network.
As you see, I have no custom interface at the moment to be able to make changes.
I'll click on the padlock icon, enter the password of my user, and now I can add a custom interface.
So click the plus icon here and VM net three is added.
And leave everything with the default values because Gns3 three will configure it for us.
So click apply and now we can close these windows.
So now let's go back to Cali and start from the three again.
And sure enough, it starts.
So log in as root user.
And finally, we're on the Kylie desktop.
Now let's look at the network settings of Kylie.
This icon is a network interface.
When you click it, you will see the interface options.
As you see, the current interface is custom VM net three.
Now, alternatively, we can look at the network setting from the wrench icon, which brings us to a
General Settings panel, and then we can select network adapter from here.
